NEW ADVERTISEMENTS
THE DARKEST HOUR.

For period of four years I've been a vic.
tim of a very severe and agonizing case Of
Salt Rheum which affected my hands to
such an extent that they almost become
burden.
NV hand became raw and horrifying, com
pelling me to keep it covered all the time.
Eve spent hundreds of dollars for various
preparations, but instead OF beneflttIng my
condition, they all seemed to stimulate ana
encourage the progress Of The miserable
disease, until l had about given up all hope.
But thank heaven, the darkest hour Is
just before day" and am rejoiced to know
that IL positive cure has been found, which
is known as b b. h. Botanic Blood Balm.
My family all rejoice at its magical cura,
tive powers in giving me relief. My hand
has been cured and resembles q burnt sur
face after being healed over, more than
anything else. 1t has also cured my two
children of a loathesome form OF itch Whlch

impose upon you with some cheap imita-

sumption, Coughs and Colds, but be sure
you get the genuine. Because he can
make more profit, he may tell you he has

Medical virtues of Onions.

The Working Woman
A mother writes: "Once week invariably,
and it generally whom we had cold meat

hailed with delight and looked forward to; this
was dish of boiled onions. The little things
medicine for expelling what most children suffer
from-worsns Mine were kept free from this
remedy alone. Not only boiled onions for din
ner, but chives also were they encouraged to eat
with their bread and butter and for this pur
pose they had tufts of chives in their little
gardens. It was a medical man who taught me
TO eat boiled onions as a specific for cold In
the chest. He did not know at the time. till
told him, that they were good for anything

The above appeared in the Lancasters New
Era and having fallen under the eye of
periencsd physician of that county, he writes as
follows:
s.The above ought TO be published in letters of
gold. and hung beside the table. that the
children could read it and remind their parents
that no family ought TO be without onions the
whole year round. Plant old onions in the fall,
and they will up at least three weeks
earlier in the spring than by spring planting.
Give children of all ages a few of them raw,
soon as they fit to be eaten: do not miss
treating them with mess of onions three
or four times week. When they get too
large toe strong to be eaten raw, then boil or
roast them. During unhealthy seasons when
diphtheria and like contagious diseases prevail,
onions ought to be eaten In the spring of the
year at least once week. Onions are invigor-
Grating and prophylactic beyond description
Further, challenge the medical fraternity. or

Trade Rather Quiet IN Most Departments,
az Might Be Expected.
INDIANAPOLIS, July Ia.
The extreme heat and it's long continuance
naturally more less affects trade bur the pres
emit conditions not likely continue many
days. Rain would be quite acceptable to the
farmers at the present time corn begins to
show the effects of the drought. The wheat is
well taken care of and the oats soon will be- then
rain could do no harm. Our manufacturers are
full of work and no talk of shutting down is
heard. which is unusual at this of the year.
The prosperity Of our railroads is another favor
able feature, and the two combined mean a good
fall trade as prosperity increases consumption,
not only OF staple but fancy articles. In prices
to-day there were no changes of Importance.
Grocers are having excellent midsummer
trade, and prices in the main are strong and
steady. The stationary condition of the coffee
market is something of surprise, and change
is looked for any day. Sugars moving out
very freely. prices firm but no higher The hide
market, on favorable report from the East, is
nrmer in tone but the improvement will not JUS
tify an advance In prices. The provision
ker is strong and fair amount of business do
ing in a jobbing way. The firm tone to prices and
prospective advances in prices on the article
most in demand at this season of the year makes
the holders CT hog products Indifferent about
pushing salsS. The produce market presents
new features Articles due at this season of the
year seem to be abundant Apples and potatoes
tending lower daily. Poultry firm. Eggs
barely steady. Good butter sells readily
prices quoted. Peaches coming in quite
freely sush they In quality they have
been disappointing far. The crop of black
and red raspberries is about exhausted and we
to-day drop quotations. Blackherries, currants
and red plums plenty and cheap We drop cab
bage. as the market is supplied with home pro-
duction. Tomatoes of home growth are coming
on the market quite freely but prices do not
weaken account of dry weather and possibly
short crop.
The local wheat market is tame in tone. and
prices for all grades rule lower, offerings are
liberal and the daily arrivals large. Choice
milling grades only seem to be in demand.
Thirty-six cars of wheat arrived to-day. Both
mixed and white grades of in better de-
msnd and at better prices. Receipts, light;
markets firm all along the line. Oats in good
deman and the range OF prices higher. Track
